Guin reminds of Tekken King too. However, one must remember that Guin was around since about 30 years. Therefore, King and Ose likely owed more to Guin. It's the same thing as Cloud and his Buster sword, Guts happened to be one of the oldest huge sword wielders in the book.

I've only read up to the first 5 volumes but shit am I pumped about this. This is going to be a really good anime, but is it true that it's only planned for 25/26 episodes?

That would be really dumb. I mean it would be fine if they were just doing 25/26 at first just to test the waters on the popularity of the show but, I really hope they don't try and change the story so it fits into 26 episodes.

Just make your 20 something episodes and if it's not popular enough drop it, but don't kill the chance of a long running series by going the claymore route and making a cheesy anime only ending.

This show could be as long as Detective Conan if they wanted to make it so, that's how much material there is.

Why would they have to resort to making a cheesy anime only ending, surely their should be more than adequate stopping points throughout the novels.

True enough. Then again the same could be said for claymore and berserk when they made those anime as well.

Someone had mentioned that it was scheduled as a 26 anime show, so I was just hoping that if that is true that it just means they only have 26 slotted for now and if the show is popular enough they can just keep on going.

Not sure about Tekken King, but Ose definitely don't owe Guin anything. Ose has been around since at least a hundred years ago..

Well Berserk mainly animated that flashback saga and gave us a taste of what was to come, as for Claymore they only really had one stopping point which was the graveyard scene, sadly Madhouse must've thought it inadequate

As for Guin saga who knows, I would like to think there is parts that end a given storyline that would be fitting for a finale. And at the same time clearly, clearly leave it open for a continuation.. maybe something like Seirei no Moribito.. but without having read the source material I really can't say.

I think it means that they pulled a Haruhi, that the folks that expect a Japanese dub on the NHK BS2, are instead going to get the English dubbed version. ...Just as it says at the end of the clip. (Starting Sunday, April 5th at 23:29, On NHK BS2.)

That trailer was made using American actors from LA according to people who follow English language actors on ANN. Hopefully, that means someone has the R1 license.
